  • Jim from JAT was an excellent guest. Their show is great too, it's Uncle Rico for Corey Feldman. Definitely should have him on more regularly

  • Who Are These Podcasts? — Critiquing Podcasts Longer Than the Podcasts They Critique

    Who Are These Podcasts is the podcast equivalent of sitting behind someone at a movie theater telling you this movie sucks instead of enjoying the movie.

    Every episode feels like a group project where nobody brought new material, so they just keep making fun of the same things for three hours and call it content.

    The irony is impressive: a show dedicated to criticizing podcasts somehow manages to remind you how much you’d rather be listening to the podcasts they’re making fun of.

  • This show has takin a nose dive

    Back in the day this show was all about what new Podcast broken skull was doing and titillating talk of Vic possibly being a 12 year-old boy! Now it’s all about big-time Carl and his house in Florida, be better!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Ep733 - FU Friday, Joe Matarese, Artie Fletcher, Jerry Banfield
Q: How did Matarese describe his move back to Philly and why did the hosts think the concept evolved into a sitcom-style arc?
They interpreted it as a long, planned arc that stretched over years, with family dynamics and real-life constraints driving the plot, which then morphed into a narrative arc suitable for a sitcom-like payoff.
Ep701 - Club Random with Adam Carolla
Q: Did you get a chance to check it out at all, Erik?
Yes, I did notice that there's different stages of Bill Maher and how he behaves in informal settings compared to formal ones.
Ep696 - Golden Hour Live, Opie & Ron, StutJo, Bill Burr, a Gay Furry
Q: What do you think about the hate from the internet?
It's jealousy, mostly about people not being brave enough to pursue their dreams.
Ep682 - Opie’s New Cohost, Bill Burr, Brendan Schaub, StutJo
Q: What do you think makes Bill Burr a suitable guest for this podcast?
His recent struggles with public image, especially after the Riyadh Comedy Festival, make for significant and topical discussion.
Ep672 - Bill Burr, Opie & Ron, StutJo, Bryan Callen, Steel Toe
Q: Is hazing gay?
Yes, it's gay, and ironic because of what he tried to do with Mick Reketa.
